Abstract

A new surgery method for contact manifolds is introduced in this paper. The surgeries are defined by using round handles with symplectic structures which are also introduced in this paper. These symplectic round handles have the global Liouville vector fields. Then the symplectic structures are exact. In the 3-dimensional case, the surgery is described only in terms of 3-dimensional contact topology.
